Privacy Warning: Please realize that these forums are open to all, and are fully searchable via Google and other search engines. If you are HIV positive
and disclose this in our forums, then it is almost the same thing as telling the whole world (or at least the World Wide Web). If this concerns you, then do not use a
username or avatar that are self-identifying in any way. We do not allow the deletion of anything you post in these forums, so think before you post.

The information shared in these forums, by moderators and members, is designed to complement, not replace, the relationship between an individual and his/her own
physician.

All members of these forums are, by default, not considered to be licensed medical providers. If otherwise, users must clearly define themselves as such.

Forums members must behave at all times with respect and honesty. Posting guidelines, including time-out and banning policies, have been established by the moderators
of these forums. Click here for “Am I Infected?” posting guidelines. Click here for posting guidelines pertaining to all other POZ community forums.

We ask all forums members to provide references for health/medical/scientific information they provide, when it is not a personal experience being discussed. Please
provide hyperlinks with full URLs or full citations of published works not available via the Internet. Additionally, all forums members must post information which are
true and correct to their knowledge.

Topic: Messages with Attachments/Uploads (Read 3441 times)

Andrej and I are doing some server maintenance to increase Forums performance. During the maintenance, all attachments and uploads will be temporarily disabled. After maintenance has been completed, all attachments and uploads will be restored.

As you surf the Forums, you'll notice that some inline files -- notably image files -- will be missing whereas others are still in place. Image files uploaded to our server have been temporarily removed; imagine files coded as an href (calling up images on another server's site) are still in place.

Until Forums maintenance is completed, you can still use href coding to include inline images in your messages. You will not be able to upload images onto the AIDSmeds server.

There is a possibility that we might have to do this with avatars as well, but we are doing our best to avoid this.

Nobody forgot. We're still doing some maintenance to the Forums. I'll definitely let everyone know when the attachment feature is activated once again.

If you'd like to post an inline image, all you need is a URL for the image file elsewhere on the web. For example, if I wanted to post my mug from AIDSmeds's "About Us" page as an inline image in the Forums, here's what I'd do.

1) Go the page featuring the image I'd like to us (http://www.aidsmeds.com/aboutus.shtml).2) Right click on the image I'd like to use (http://www.aidsmeds.com/images/Tim3.JPG)3) In the Forums "new message" window, click on the "insert image"/little picture icon (second from the left, on the second row of button options). 4) In between the HTML language that appears, insert the image file URL.

If you have a personal image on your hard drive that you'd like to share, first post it to a photo sharing program like photobucket or Google's picasa. Then simply follow the instructions above.

We're still doing some maintenance to the Forums. I'll definitely let everyone know when the attachment feature is activated once again.

Thanks for the "heads-up"!

It's all a sham. Politics is a big game, same as the media - and same as religion. The point is to distract & control. If we're looking at what they tell us is the "big issue", we're not looking at what they are doing. In time, there will be different causes and different minorities to pick-on. All in the name of keeping the system going, and the people distracted.

Hi.... just wondering if this would apply to personal messages??? I was wanting to respond to a PM notification that I received in my personal e-mail box, but when I click on the link included in the e-mail, I get this message:

If I log off and sign back in to poz, a window pops up stating that I have 1 or more personal messages. I click OK ... and it logs me on to poz, but I don't see anywhere to access an inbox or outbox...

I looked in the "help" section about personal messaging, but I'm just confused a little. If you can help... or point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it!

Thanks so much!!!!
